Steve Cohen commented on MASSEMBLY-670: --------------------------------------- That was a firewall issue. I got the software out of SVN, sneakernetted it onto the PC where the build is run, and tried to add the source location for the plexus code. This behaved oddly: the source appeared for a fraction of a second and then disappeared. Somehow Eclipse found it wanting. Perhaps, the source I got did not match the code that maven is running with? > assembly plugin tar.gz format does not preserve timestamps of files it adds > to archive > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MASSEMBLY-670 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-670 > Project: Maven Assembly Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: component descriptor > Affects Versions: 2.4 > Environment: linux > Reporter: Steve Cohen > > The .tar.gz archives created by the assembly plugin do not preserve the > timestamps of the files it adds to the archive.
